Another American doctor working in West Africa has tested positive for the deadly Ebola virus, a missionary group announced on Tuesday.
SIM USA, an international Christian mission organization, said the unnamed doctor was treating obstetrics patients at the group’s hospital in Monrovia, Liberia when he felt Ebola symptoms and immediately quarantined himself.
The group said the doctor has since been transferred to an Ebola isolation unit and is, “doing well and is in good spirits.”
The Charlotte-based group didn’t reveal the doctor’s age or how long he had been working in West Africa. They said specifics on how the doctor contracted the virus haven’t been determined.
